Ron--I have one of those six-inch, six-pound heaters which does the trick reasonably well, but the wiring in my house is so mousy (100A overall service, and spread thin at that) that every time the heat element shuts off, it trips the breaker for the one outlet in my garage. Which also knocks the lights out in three rooms and the outlets in two.  I'll be having that panel upgraded, outlets added in the garage (six at four feet off the deck, one in the ceiling for the garage door opener, and two for the exterior), and the one outlet which is on the same circuit as almost half the house will be removed altogether. Oh, and better lighting.
Then will come the fun part of finish out the garage to a useful workbench etc. Fun, eh? No wonder I haven't gotten as far as actually starting on the electronic bits in my mighty 190!
